Hot Air Ballooning in Sri Lanka

While a sightseeing tour of Sri Lanka on land offers plenty of adventures, there is nothing quite like seeing this enchanting island from a bird’s eye perspective! Hot air ballooning in Sri Lanka is fast becoming a popular recreational pursuit and one that takes place in the country’s Cultural Triangle. Travellers wanting to explore this part of the island on specially planned Sri Lanka tours can enlist the services of Jetwing Travels. Helping to organise your Sri Lanka travel adventure, this trusted tour operator provides plenty of opportunity for you to go on thrilling excursions.

When in the Cultural Triangle make sure to sign up for a hot air balloon adventure that takes place in destinations such as Dambulla, Uda Walawe and Sigiriya. A typical tour begins just after dawn which gives you a chance to witness the majestic beauty of the sunrise, as the first rays of the morning sun gently bathe the landscapes below. It is easy to feel humbled by the sheer natural beauty that surrounds as you drift over lush greenery, cultural sites, villages and wildlife, with the striking Sigiriya Rock Fortress in the backdrop. This intimate setting is also perfect for those in search of a romantic getaway with that special someone as you share memories that will last a lifetime.
